Hennessey, Fury & Adam Booth interview on iFilm

First topic message reminder :

Nice that Kugan got them all together. Personally I am not convince that Mick will make this. Fury is saying what he always does, but you know Booth and Haye want it. I don't feel the same about Mick from this.

the traditional approach is to offer me bribes.

Ill offer you a lot mate.

Winchester - im not a huge fan of wladamir but I know boxing and when someone of his calibre is being beaten by a fan of some no hoper in Tyson Fury it annoys me.

Your still avoiding the question of which journeymen knocked wlad out?

Rowley wrote:He fights cautious, if a guy does not have a great chin which Wlad does why would he fight in a style where he puts his chin in harms way. That is not brave it is just plain stupid. A fighter should fight in a manner to best utilise his assets, Wlad does this, smart intelligent fighting in my opinion.

He fights like that because he cant take a punch and would be knocked out if he does. Like he was against journeymen before. Hes afraid to get hit. Hes afraid to to chances. Because he just isnt that good. People on here spout all sorts of rubbish about him. Hes top 10 of all time. He knocks out Joe Frazier. The fighters he lost to werent that bad. Maybe ban those people who dont know what their on about before people have a go at me.

You're missing my point. So what if he can't take a punch, if he can fight in a style where he does not have to and still win fair play to him. As has been said countles times boxing is the art of hitting and not getting hit. He does this very well.

I could half see your point if his style was like Audley's where he is so cautious it stops him launching any kind of offence but the number of fights he wins, KO's he scores and rounds he wins in those fights amply proves this is not the case.

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha best comment so far.

You are the worst poster in boxing history.

So how has he been knocked out three times already? Fury hasnt been knocked out once and he gets a far harder time.

Errr pacquiao has been knocked out on numerous occasions.

Klitschko lost to purity, brewster and sanders none of which were journey men and that was 10 or so years ago!

Purrity.....

Fury gets a hard time because he is Poopie. Simple as that.

How can you think he is a world beater winchester? ?

If you can justify your answer then fair enough but we all know you cant.

Its that simple. It really is.

Next you will be saying Khan beats Mayweather or that adamek could hammer muhammed ali!

May be coming out of left field on this one but possibly he has improved since then. Dick Tiger lost four in a row early in his career and he did not turn out to be too bad a fighter.

I agree with Winchester.

Thanks again sean........Please tell me your being sarcastic and/or patronizing toward win?

He is still an average fighter. He fights like he is scared because he is afraid to get hit. He is afraid to get hit because he knows he will be knocked out. His tactics are ultra cautious. I cant see them working on Fury for an entire fght. Fury is bigger and more aggressive. He can use his size and strength to bully Wladimir Klitschko and you will see how ordinary he is.

Winchester. Seriously. Please. Please. Please.

Im begging you to stop because this is getting ridiculous.

Wladamir Klitschko would knock Fury out 110% and would do it with complete ease.

Fury has said he dont want the fight and now he does....he is deluded much like yourself which is why I think you are actually Tyson Fury.

And winchester thinks this guy is the next best thing?! (Sorry, he actually thinks he IS the best thing)

I think Wilder is the best heavyweight in the world at the moment.

winchester wrote:I think Wilder is the best heavyweight in the world at the moment.

Based on what? He's shown he has great power but hasn't fought anyone near the top 20.

Hahahahahahahahahaha quality.

WINCHESTER you are a complete tool.

SERIOUSLY!

Why do you guys respond to the likes of Winchester, Gordy etc?
Your just giving an obvious WUM even more material to work with.

I said a few weeks ago that Wilder, though a good prospect, needs to fight at least two top ten fighters before he can legitimately challenge either K brother. And I bet you Wilder would agree with me!! I haven't seen Wilder calling out either of them.

J.Benson II wrote:Why do you guys respond to the likes of Winchester, Gordy etc?

Because they enjoy speaking to someone on the same intelligence level

Then why dont you respond steffan?

mobilemaster8 wrote:Then why dont you respond steffan?

He hasnt yet achieved that level yet

ShahenshahG wrote:Sorry Laddie but Corrie would quite happily knock out all three of that lot - he was a power puncher but limited as you said. Still better than your three as they are now. The reason he couldn't knock out Haye was because he was back pedalling faster than the lib dems after the election.

Wlad seems to carry his opponent for a little while, with these three he probably wouldnt bother.

I think he would both the Klitschko brothers now which is why I dont expect them to be looking to fight him. Hes the closest thing there has been to a young Mike Tyson in the division for a long time. Hes not as polished or skilled as Tyson but he is lot bigger and he has that ruthlessness that Tyson had. I dont think the Klitschkos would cope with his power, size and aggression.

And he isn't looking for the fight because he knows he is too green from fighting tomato cans for the last three years. He needs to step up his level of opposition and then put himself in the mix. Otherwise, you may as well say Hughie Fury should be challenging now as he's climbed into a ring. I won't be surprised if he makes it, but many a fighter has fallen when they go to the next level. Some pick themselves up again and go onwards ala Wlad, others fade in obscurity. Throwing him in with either of the brothers WHEN HE ISN'T ASKING FOR IT is the best way to end a promising career.

I watched him against Audley Harrison there not long ago He beat the living daylights out of him. Things never quite clicked for Audley after the Olympics and no one knows why but one thing nobody can deny is that he is a big, powerful man with bags of talent. Wilder smashed him to pieces in a matter of seconds. Not only that, but even when it was clear Audley was hurt he just kept attacking him. It was a remarkable display of ferocity that reminded me of Tyson in his early years. When Tyson was on the way up everyone knew it was just a matter of time before he was champion. Didnt matter who the champion was at the time. People knew Tyson was the man beat. Thats how I view Wilder now.

After the fight Wilder was quick to call out Fury who I think is a tougher fight than the Klitschkos. Both of those are old now and trying to hang onto their title rather than facing the best. I think the likes of Fury, Wilder, Price, Haye and these guys have figured they are not going to get a crack at the title while the Klitschkos have a say and have decided to go about fighting each other. The Klitschko brothers will be left behind while the likes of Fury and Wilder become the big names in the division.

Who have they ducked? Wlad is due to face Povetkin this summer and Povetkin is the 4th best HW out there (wlad already beat the 3rd best HW, david haye, 2 years ago.

The best heavyweight in the world is a guy whose best win so far is Audley Harrison. It is the constant ability of this place to astound you that keeps me coming back.

Winchester is moving into ATG status.

Winchester is either a WUM or he just has no clue about boxing. It is laughable that he thinks WIlder is the best HW in the world because he beat a 41 year old Audley Harrisson.

They havent faced Fury, Price and Wilder and you could add the giant Valuev when he was around. Their last fights were against sparring partners and they could have faced Fury or Wilder next but have chose not to. Its the same way they fight. They dont take risks.

They haven't faced audley harrison either are they ducking him too? Also They haven't faced martin rogan either are they too scared to fight him?

They haven't faced Price because his best win was against Harrison and as soona s he stepped up he lost to Thompson a guy who Wladimir klitschko has knocked out twice.

Audley Harrison and Martin Rogan are not the biggest challenges out there. Fury, Wilder and Price are. It would not surprise me if they fought Audley Harrison. One of them fought Chisora instead of Fury even though Fury had beaten Chisora. And they only fought Haye after seeing how he struggled with Valuevs size. Says it all about their attitude to taking risks. I think they realise they are old and want to hang on as long as they can.

Winchester can I ask why do you think Fury has withdrawn from the purse bids for the Pulev fight bearing in mind had he won he would have been mandatory for Wlad's title and Wlad would have been stripped had he not faced him?

Do you actually mean what you say? Klitschko had signed up to fight Haye before haye fought Valuev, Haye pulled out.

Why is Wilder and Price the biggest challenges? Povetkin is clearly the biggest challenge and Klitschko will be fighting him this summer. Price has just lost to thompson and Fury keeps saying he is not interested in fighting the klitschkos, in fact he pulled out of a fight with pulev that would have made the winner a mandatory to fight Wlad.

You keep talking about Wilder when all the guy has done is beat Harrisson. Seriously stop WUMMING.

Because of the Haye fight (I know I'm not Winchester, I could pretend?).

Winchester probably didn't even know Fury pulled out.

Then that shows that Fury is the one avoiding Klitschko.

I think Fury knows how the Klitschkos work. They havent offered him a match so far so he knows they arent keen to face him. He could spend even more trying to get a match with them which they could hold out on. I think he is doing the right thing calling out Haye. Its a much bigger and tougher fight than Pulev. Fair play to him. I think he wants to create his own name and leave the Klitschkos behind. One of the Klitschkos will probably end up fighting Pulev instead of Fury. Fury and Wilder will end up creating names for themselves and becming the stars of the division while the ancient Klitschkos are left in their wake. Its already happening now.

But if Fury beat Pulev then Klitschko would be forced to face Fury.

Why dont the Klitschkos just offer Fury a match if they are keen to fight him? The fact they are trying to get him to fight others first show they are trying to prolong facing him. Theres two of them fighting several times a year. For the last couple of years how many chances did they have to challenge Fury to a match and didnt? Instead they fight sparring partners or guys like Chisora who Fury has already beat. They are probably hoping someone else beats Fury for them like when Valuev was around.
